The Cisco 6509 with SUP720 at Miskolc and at Szeged
configured to carry IPv6 traffic, thus University of Miskolc can run
IPv6 at gigabit speed.

Presentation about the NIIF IPv6 project at the assembly of
HBONE operators

NIIF Streamed the Ipsilon seminar about mplayer on the
Internet over IPv6 also: Several interested parties connected via IPv6

Sup720 cards are installed at University of Szeged and
Miskolc University to support high performance IPv6. However IPv6
connectivity
still provided by separate Cisco 7200.

Reverse DNS servers of KFKI Research Institute For Particle
and Nuclear Physics of The Hungarian Academy of Science registered.

"The Fine Arts in Hungary"
website
is now reachable via IPv6 also. This site is dedicated to fine arts in
Hungary from the beginnings in the Romanesque period up to the mid 20th
century. The exhibition, opened in 1997, created by Emil Kren, and
continuously developed since its opening. The upgraded collection was
published in February 2004 both in Hungarian and in English, and now
made
reachable via IPv6 NIIF/HUNGARNET and KFKI-RMKI. The upgraded
collection
contains 5100 reproduction (the original 11000).

link.

L2 VPN connectivity that will be used for 6NET connectivity
has
established.

IPv6 router at Miskolc become unreachable via IPv4 SNMP,
since the network processor card of the main Cisco 7200 get faulty.
This did not affect the IPv6 forwarding, but only the monitoring, since
MPLS (P router) provided by Cisco 6500. The faulty card has replaced.
